Freaks of Explosions, i
Gunpowder explosions have one re |
markable feature. The bodies of per-
gons killed in such an accident are
always found without clothing, but
frequently one foot will have the shoe |
on. This is trne of horses also. If]
other on the ground, the shoe will be |
found torn from the foot that was on |
the ground and not from the other.
When men are killed in powder ex

Making It Clear.
A ‘newly appointed French mayor
fnaugurated his regime by a notice to
the following effect:
“On the feast of our patron saint
the fire brigade will be reviewed In
the afternoon if it rains in the morning
and in the morning if it rains in the
afternoon.”
Mirror Maa,
“What!” exclaims the astonished
geader, “is it possible that there are
any civilized persons on the face of the
earth who are net in the habit of be-
holding their visages reflected from
time to time in a miwor of some kind?
Surely this cannot pe so.” Wrong,
quite wrong, geu
present time, strange
pear, there are hundreds of men and
women in the United Kiggdom who
have not gazed into a mirror for years,
The convicts confined in British pris-
ons form members of this community.
From the moment of a convict’'s en-
trance to a jail to the moment of his
exit he is not permitted to have the
use of a mirror of any kind, the small-
est piece of glass being rigidly denied
him. To the women convicts this ab-
sence of a mirror forms one of the
chief hardships of confinement, and
many a female warder can tell piteous
wales of women who have actually fall-
en upon their knees and sobbed out
entreaties for the loan of a morsel of
mirror—*just for a second.” All these
entreaties have perforce to be disre-
gawled, and it therefore comes about
that many a female convict passes
three or four years without being per-
mitted to gaze upon her own features
-~London Tit-Bits.
re Jast an Ordinary Steak.
“When in Hamburg, we supposed
awe must do as th» Hamburgers did, sc
at our first meal there we asked for
Hamburg steak,” said the woman.
“Besides, we wanted to see how that
viand would taste upon its native
heath, anyway. But to all our requests,
/ couched in our best scholastic German,
! ‘the waiter shook his head. Like many
another prophet, the Hamburg steak
sas apparently without honor in its
wi country. At all events, our waiter
padn’t heard of it. ‘Oh, well,” we said,
‘Just bring us an ordinary beef steak.
But, lo and behold, when the meat was
served there it was all chopped up and
made into small cakes—what Ameri:
cans call, in fact, ‘Hamburg steak!
To Hamburgers a Hamburg steak was
ar ‘ordinary steak.’ "—New York Sun
scene Painting,
A good scene painter may get any-
where from $400 to $1,000 for a scene.
The average price paid to the best half
dozen scene painters for a scene is
$500. But there are a great many more
scenes painted for $100 than $500.

is, what medium to use?
Advertising experts long
ago settled it by declar-

effective and brings better
